Maeve O’Neill has been
having terrible nightmares lately. They seem so real and they’re beginning to
interfere in her daily life, so she decides to find the place in her dreams and
put them to rest once and for all. But what she does instead is turn her life
upside down. Nothing is what she thought,
not even herself. Now she has to trust a stranger to help her before she ends
up dead. She’s never been good at trusting, but dead seems so much worse, so
trust it is.
The beginning of this
story will draw you in and not let go. It’s a bit confusing at first as to who
are the white hats and who are the black hats, but it plays out in a surprising
way. Maeve is a bit too wimpy at times for me, but overall she doesn’t take much
shit from anyone. I love the twist and turns her path takes, but the final conflict
falls flat for me. I also have a hard time with the insta-love. I just don’t
feel any build up for it. It’s just suddenly there. I love the world and the
characters though. All-in-all this is a great tale about magic, discovering
yourself, and standing against corruption.
